Are you looking to add a touch of elegance and style to your home? Look no further than decorative trays! These versatile and beautiful pieces not only serve a practical purpose but also have the power to transform any space into a stunning showcase. In this blog post, we will explore why decorative trays are important and how you can use them to enhance your home decor.

Varying Heights for Visual Interest

One of the key benefits of using decorative trays is their ability to create visual interest through varying heights. By placing objects of different heights on the tray, you can add depth and dimension to your decor. Imagine a beautifully arranged tray with a tall vase of fresh flowers, a stack of books, and a small sculpture. The varying heights create a visually captivating display that instantly catches the eye.

Rearrange and Refresh

Another advantage of decorative trays is their versatility. Unlike permanent fixtures or furniture, trays can be easily rearranged and refreshed to suit your changing style or mood. You can experiment with different objects, colors, and textures on the tray to create a new look whenever you desire. This flexibility allows you to constantly reinvent your space and keep it feeling fresh and inspiring.

Curate Your Collection

Your home should be a reflection of your unique personality and style. Gather a group of items you want to display and start organizing. Start with something prominent like a vase of flowers or a stack of books and fill in the extra space with smaller, matching trinkets. Decorative trays provide the perfect canvas to showcase your personal taste and interests. Whether you prefer a minimalist aesthetic or sleek and modern designs, the options are endless.

Three Ways to Style Your Trays

 1. Seasonally

One of the easiest ways to style your decorative tray is for a specific season or holiday.

Incorporate the colors that are traditionally associated with it: during the vibrant autumn months, you can use warm hues like burnt orange, deep red, and golden yellow. In winter, opt for cool tones like blue and silver. Spring calls for pastel shades, while summer invites bright colors.

Try using elements that are synonymous with the season: during the fall, you can use mini pumpkins, pinecones, and dried leaves. In winter, opt for snowflakes, ornaments, and greenery. Spring can be represented by fresh flowers, while summer can be showcased with seashells or tropical touches.

2. Light and Airy/ Monochromatic

Light and airy designs with monochromatic accents make adding new decor easier than ever.

Add layers and textures: start by placing a base such as our risers. Incorporate different textures such as a ceramic bowl or a woven basket. These elements will add dimension and make your tray visually appealing.

Choose a color palette: opt for soft neutral colors such as whites, creams, and light grays or warm nuetrals such as browns and beige. These colors will create a sense of calm and serenity in your space. Avoid bold or vibrant colors as they can overpower the light and airy feeling.

3. Sleek and Simple

A sleek and modern tray set-up is perfect subtle addition to any space.

Choose a tray that doesn't distract: Our decorative trays offer clean lines and a simple, modern, design. Look for materials like wood or marble that exude a sense of sophistication and simplicity to the sleek aesthetic you are trying to achieve.

Keep things clutter-free: when styling your decorative tray, resist the temptation to fill it with too many items. Instead, select a few carefully curated pieces that are both functional and visually appealing. For example, a focal item such as a plant or a vase with a few functional items on either side. Remember, less is more when it comes to achieving a sleek and minimal look.
